Death Is Not the End

You make me happy, then you make me sad,
to see you smile, see you laugh, see you cry,
why do you make me good then make me bad,
perhaps I don't make you happy, I try,

we have had good times that we have both shared,
places we've visited, sights encountered,
the majority of our life, we cared,
love for each other we never doubted,

remember, one day we will be parted,
even though this will not be of our choice,
it's not the end just back where we started,
I will see you, I Will hear your sweet voice,

our future lifetime is not ours to see,
I just hope my destiny is with thee.
